About this dish

No added salt or sugar

Flavour comes from herbs, spices and the ingredients themselves.

Our dairy-free stroganoff swaps the chicken and cream for creamy butter beans and chestnut mushrooms in a gentle paprika and tomato sauce, made with our homemade vegetable stock.

We serve it with buckwheat, broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage. Buckwheat is a nutritious alternative to rice or potato, and its new texture helps little ones build confidence with food. Vegetarian, dairy-free and egg-free.

How to choose a texture

Questions parents ask

Is the butter bean stroganoff dairy-free?

Yes. There is no cream, butter or cheese. The sauce gets its creaminess from butter beans and plant-based spread.

How do I reheat the stroganoff?

Microwave for 60 seconds (baby) or 90 seconds (toddler). For babies under 2, reheat on the hob with a dash of water and the lid on at medium heat for 6 minutes for a softer texture.

How do I get dairy-free meals for my child?

Add dairy-free to your child's dietary needs when you sign up, or in your account. We then send the dairy-free version of every meal on the menu.
